For each gift:

  1. Find an item you want to gift. You can discover items through Featured Items or simply search.
  2. On the item page, click Add To Cart.

When you're done adding gift items to your cart:

  1. Click Cart to see what's in your cart.
  2. Under an item you want to buy as a gift, click Send as gift.
  3. Enter the recipient's exact Second Life name, and optionally, enter a note they'll see in text chat when they receive the gift. Here's an example message (The reference to XStreetSL is outdated and needs to be updated to the Marketplace):

  4. Click Update, and the page now shows "This is a gift for..." and the name you entered.

When you're done specifying recipients for gifts:

  1. Optionally, click Update quantities to make sure you've entered all names correctly.
  2. Complete the checkout process as you normally would.
  3. Await a delighted reaction from your friend.

Notes

  • You can gift each unique item in your cart to a different Resident.
  • You can't send L$0 freebies as gifts.
